Honestly this debate is what is ridiculous. To suggest you can’t differentiate between players based on their fitness record, lifestyle and style of play is just absurd. Nothing is certain at any age, but Kane has exactly the kind of profile clubs would look for. And people do pay high fees for elite strikers over 30. Ronaldo went for £100m at 33, Lewandowski went for £50m aged 34. Based on that £100m for Kane at 30 is a bargain
Agree with all that...except for the fact that he has one year left on his contract.

Whoever it was on here said Tuchel flew to Biggin Hill a while back to meet Harry.

Well remembered mate, it was this post.

Bild says another private jet has left Munich for Biggin Hill airport which is 15 miles from Central London.

Based on the Harry building a house in Wentworth 15 mins from Chelseas training ground. Biggin Hill is closer to Palace/West Ham than Tottenham, so they must be going there

No chance they fly over here just to submit a bid which has been circulating in the media and will likely be rejected. I think if this has been arranged for a week or so the plan is to stay for a couple of days until an agreement is reached.
They've already had people fly over to meet Levy and they didn't even make a bid that time. It might happen it might not, but everyone pretending to know exactly what will happen is just silly.

Well they're running out of time, aren't they? How many times are they going to just fly over and then leave?

Man Utd has won 2 Premier Leagues, 1 Fa Cup, 2 Carabao Cups, and a Europa League since Ronaldo left in 2009.

Arsenal has won 4 FA cups since Henry left.

I'd bite my hand off for a fraction of that success.

But how many Tiger cups have they won?

Biggin Hill Airport, home of F1 Management HQ, owned by Liberty Media Group... I think I've completed Spurs Community bingo!

I don't think they are going to his house for a cuppa.

Sure, but people suggesting if they're flying over then they are definitely going to make the deal happen, when they've flown over before and it didn't happen.

We don't know what will happen, definitely seems like it's progressing. But previous meeting went nowhere. That was probably before Levy was pissed off at them, or at least is more pissed off now. And all the reports saying they'll go to €100m still isn't enough I don't think.

I hope they've still got the Spitfire and Hurricane outside Biggin Hill, that'll be nice for the Germans as they drive out. 😁

Having dealt with some German clients recently - who, actually, were some of the nicest blokes I've dealt with in 15 years in the ol' game - they were very keen to do in person meetings, especially at key points during the deal. On speaking to them about this, it's embedded in a lot of their business culture apparently.

I mean that could also be specific to that company, however it would make sense why this nonsense isn't being done by phone/Teams/Zoom/webcam and a prayer.
